Mini-Review:
A three-hour baseball game last night for my oldest son and The Voice ate into my reading time as I planned to finish You Again last night (yes I'm a procrastinator). So I'm not quite done, but today is my tour date. So I will give you my thoughts on the first third of the book and then a full review in a day or two.
I love this book. I can't wait to read on it. In fact I took my iPad to the ballfield, but my boy played so that demanded my attention (his first middle school game). Allie and Sam are great characters. I love that she had a crush on him in high school. I like the chemistry they have together (but it's not rushed). I am also thoroughly enjoying the mystery and getting to know other characters in the book. One more thing I love, that both protagonists have children. Something you just don't see often. It's an interesting book so far and if the rest follows what the first third is like, then this is sure to be a winner. So just on that I do recommend this book. I enjoy Ms. Mallory's writing style and I look forward to reading more by her!
Summary
A
hopeless crush…
Back in high school, Allie McBride thought the
sun set around Sam Fratto’s smiles, even if they were only friends. Now she’s
older, wiser, hotter, and teaching at the same school they grew up in. When Sam
joins the faculty, she has a chance to make good on the crush that got away.
But when a dead body turns up on school grounds, they realize there might be a
murderer in their midst. The heat keeps getting hotter between Allie and Sam,
but more might be in danger than their hearts…
The cute
kid from high school is all grown up…
A family crisis brings true-crime writer Sam
Fratto back to town after more than a decade’s absence. Teaching at his alma
mater seems like a good way to pass the time—especially when he sees that
Allie, the geeky, sweet-mannered girl from high school, has blossomed into the
saucy teacher in the classroom next door. Too bad finding a dead body
transforms his return into one of his true-crime books come to life. And when
it seems the killer might be after Allie next, it’s up to him to keep her safe…
A killer
determined to keep the past buried at any price…
As if dealing with the return of one ghost from
her past wasn’t enough, it looks like the killer might be the person they least
suspected. Someone from the past. Someone with something to hide. Someone who
thinks Allie and Sam are getting a little too close to the truth. If Allie and
Sam are going to get out of this alive, these two friends to lovers will have
to work together…or die together…

Author Biography
Ashlee lives with her husband, two kids, a dog,
and cat surrounded by the majestic mountains of her hometown of Salt Lake.
Born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, she
always wanted to know what it was like to live on the other side of the
mountains. In college, she interned a semester in DC and later attended law
school in Syracuse, New York, where she also ventured to Israel for a summer
semester. After graduating law school with a taste of what it’s like living in
the bigger world, she moved back home to Salt Lake and took the Utah Bar Exam,
got married, and settled in with her hubby and two wonderful kids. After a few
more years in the legal realm, she grew restless and turned her pen to one of
her first loves—writing stories.
Currently, when she’s not working the day job
as in-house counsel, she spends her time with the family and squeezing in
writing time—anything to avoid the housekeeping. Just kidding, honey! ;)
She writes with romance and humor at the heart
of every story—and a healthy dash of mystery and suspense.
Hopefully she pulls it off.
